HVAC Humidity Question

I have a Carrier hvac. The thermostat is reading 58% humidity, but the hygrometer (thermopro) I have right next to it says 50% humidity. So my unit is currently running longer than needed to overcool the house to reach a humidity level that seems inaccurate. I even put a dehumidifier (GE) in that room last night. The dehumidifier turned off at 50% and the unit still ran all night.

I know it’s currently a heat wave, but does it sound like my thermostat is faulty? Anyone know of a good hvac place to call and ask? I don’t remember having this issue last summer.
